- Crathie Church - Queen Victoria first visited this church in 1848 upon her arrival at Balmoral Castle. This initiated the tradition, still upheld today, of the Royal Family and their guests worshipping alongside local residents in the parish church. Queen Victoria laid the foundation stone of the current church in 1893, and it was completed and dedicated in 1895. The funds for the new building were raised through subscriptions and donations from parishioners and the public. Queen Victoria’s daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Louise, contributed £2,000, which they raised at a Bazaar held on the grounds of Balmoral Castle.
- Royal Lochnagar Distillery - Renowned as one of Scotland’s finest whisky distilleries.
- Glamis Castle - Located in the heart of Angus, Scotland, Glamis Castle has been the ancestral home of the Earls of Strathmore and Kinghorne since 1372. It inspired William Shakespeare’s Macbeth and is celebrated for its rich history and notable visitors, including Mary, Queen of Scots, and James V.
Glamis Castle was the childhood home of HM Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. Her younger daughter, HRH Princess Margaret, was born here and frequently visited during her childhood, along with her elder sister HRH Princess Elizabeth.
